Provided by David Frenkiel

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 daikon radish, peeled or zucchini
4 carrots, peeled
4 cups mung bean sprouts
4 scallions, thinly sliced
12 oz organic, GMO-free firm tofu, cut in quarters
1 small handful cilantro leaves, chopped, plus extra for serving
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds, plus extra for serving
4 slices of lime, to serve
Peanut sauce:
1/2 cup peanut butter (adjust to allergies by choosing a different seed or nut butter)
4 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons clear honey, preferably unheated
2 tablespoons organic, GMO-free tamari or soy sauce
1 pinch ground cayenne pepper or more to taste
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
About 3 tablespoons water, to thin

Steps:

  • Use a julienne peeler, mandoline or spiralizer (or even a potato peeler) to create noodles from the daikon and carrots. Place in a bowl and add the mung bean sprouts and onions. Add the tofu, coriander and sesame seeds to the noodles and mix. Stir together all the sauce ingredients in a separate bowl, add more water if needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Pour over the vegetables and toss to combine using your hands. Make sure that every single strand is covered in dressing. Serve with a slice of lime, chopped coriander and sesame seeds on top.

PAD THAI NOODLES



Pad Thai Noodles image

This popular Thai noodle dish has a delicate balance of spicy, sweet, salty, and sour flavors. This recipe is based on a traditional Bangkok-style version of the dish. It is not swimming in sauce like many Western versions found in restaurants. The dish is full of flavor with a light coating of delicious sauce in every bite. Serve with lime wedges, fish sauce, sugar, white pepper or pepper flakes, and vinegar on the table so guests can individually adjust tastes.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

7 ounces 1/4-inch thick rice stick noodles
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons raw peanuts, or more to taste
6 Thai chile peppers, seeded and minced, or more to taste
1 shallot, minced, or more to taste
3 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
1 pound boneless chicken, cut into 1/4-inch strips
⅓ cup extra-firm tofu, cut into matchsticks
2 ½ tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons tamarind paste
1 ½ tablespoons fish sauce
½ teaspoon ground white pepper, or to taste
1 egg
¼ pound large shrimp - peeled, deveined, and tails removed
1 cup bean sprouts
1 cup chopped fresh chives
1 lime, juiced

Steps:

  • Place noodles in a large bowl and cover with hot water. Set aside until noodles are flexible but still firm, about 10 minutes. Drain.
  • Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until it starts to smoke. Add oil; heat until it shimmers. Add peanuts; cook and stir until roasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from wok.
  • Stir chile peppers, shallot, and garlic into the oil; cook and stir until garlic just begins to brown, about 30 seconds. Add chicken and tofu; cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 4 to 5 minutes. Add noodles, stirring quickly to mix in and prevent them from sticking. Add sugar, tamarind paste, fish sauce, and white pepper together; cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
  • Push noodle mixture to one side of the wok; crack egg into the empty space. Stir until scrambled, 1 to 2 minutes; fold into noodles. Stir in shrimp; cook until opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Add roasted peanuts, bean sprouts, chives, and lime juice; cook and stir until flavors combine, 1 to 2 minutes more.

THAI NOODLES (PAD THAI)



Thai Noodles (Pad Thai) image

This is an adopted recipe that I have not yet had time to prepare. The original poster's comments are as follows: "This is my favorite version of Pad Thai. It's a wonderful mix of flavors - the sweetness is nicely contrasted with the tartness of the limes and red chilis. You can use chicken, pork, shrimp or a combination of all three. This is a meal in itself - It's really great with Thai iced tea! From "Thai Home Cooking" by Kamomal Pootaraska -- NOTE: I replaced the original version of recipe #7941 (when I adopted it in February 2005) with this authentic version that I have used time and time again with great success. It tastes just like the Pad Thai I have enjoyed in authentic Thai restaurants."
